Hops Head Beer Club Review

Continued from above...

Also, a monthly beer club can provide a sense of anticipation and excitement. Members look forward to the arrival of their monthly shipment, eager to discover new beers and expand their knowledge and experience of beer. Many beer clubs include detailed information about the beers they offer, including the brewing process, the ingredients used, and the history of the beer. This anticipation can add to the enjoyment of the experience, making it a fun and engaging way to explore the world of beer.

Here's a fun fact about beer to get you started: some anthropologists theorize that the shift from a hunter-gatherer society to sedentary farming was partially caused by one key technological innovation. That would be brewing!

These days, if we want a drink, we only need to decide whether we'll drive to the local bottle shop, or join in a growing trend and have it shipped right to our door. Since the 90's, monthly beer clubs have been an increasingly popular way to gift or receive expert-curated beer. So whether you're looking to explore new beer styles, discover the unexpected, or gift the same to a friend, family, co-worker or acquaintance, now is an excellent time to take advantage of the diversity of modern brewing, and explore something fresh with a monthly beer club.

There are, however, quite a number of beer clubs out there, and it can be difficult to compare them all. Some specialize in the highest quality (and highest priced) craft beer experiences, others offer interesting stylistic or regional themes, still others just ship you 12 good beers with no frills about it. After surveying the best (and a few of the rest), Top Consumer Reviews has found some key points to look for as you make your choice:

• Theme: Look for how they theme their club. You could get 12 beers from the supermarket for a whole lot less than a beer club; a carefully-selected theme, however, can make a beer club both exciting and informative, so be sure to check for an interesting way that they tie it all together from month to month.
• Quality Assurance: Anyone can put beer in a box and call it a day. It takes an expert, however, to curate based on taste, and if you're paying for a beer club you should expect no less. Be sure to look for information on how a club chooses their beers, not just what beers they send.
• Past Selections: Some of the best clubs on our list let you know exactly what beers are in an upcoming box, and exactly what they've chosen in the past. If they aren't telling you these things... then it's probably a good idea to look critically at any claims to quality.
• Extras: While secondary to the beer itself, some of our favorite clubs include gifts and interesting tidbits with your monthly shipment. When comparing similar offerings, any added extras may very well be the determining factor.

While many clubs seem similar, not all are up to the mark. At Top Consumer Reviews, we have searched with an eye for the interesting, intriguing, and quality-consistent, to find only the best Beer Clubs to fill your fridge. Whatever your specific tastes, we are certain you'll find a club that fits yours. Cheers!
